Clearwater applicants looking for a supported visa appointment route are directed in the supplied list to Washington DC. The nearest listed centre is the VFS Global Washington Visa Application Centre at 1025 Vermont Avenue NW, Suite 200, Washington, DC 20005. Other listed Washington centres cover Spain, France and Germany. The Cancellation Finder helps you follow the listed destination routes and receive email and SMS notifications, while official provider instructions remain essential because arrangements and availability can change.
The Clearwater page lists five destination routes from Washington DC. Netherlands and Portugal use VFS Global, Spain uses BLS International, France uses TLScontact, and Germany is listed under an Embassy or Consulate route. Each route has its own official booking link, so select the destination that fits your application rather than choosing a centre by convenience alone. The route list is evidence of supported options, not a statement that every provider centre is included here.
VFS Global links the Netherlands and Portugal routes to 1025 Vermont Avenue NW, Suite 200, Washington, DC 20005. The centre guidance says destination-specific submission arrangements can vary, so review the relevant VFS page before committing to travel. This distinction matters for Clearwater because the same Washington address appears for two destinations, while the route choice determines which official page and instructions apply. The centre card supplies the official link for each route. Keep the destination selected consistently in your notes and booking steps.
All four nearest-centre entries for Clearwater are in Washington DC. The VFS Global address is the closest listed entry, and the distance figures are driving estimates calculated from the centre of Clearwater using the stated OpenStreetMap OSRM source. They are not a personal trip promise: live traffic, road closures and the point where you start can alter both distance and time. Build a realistic travel plan around your own departure point and chosen appointment date.
Before travelling to Washington, compare the exact destination route with the centre card. The Spain entry is tied only to Spain and asks applicants to confirm consular jurisdiction before booking. The German Embassy entry likewise asks you to confirm coverage for your place of residence and visa category. For France, check the appointment confirmation and current security instructions; for VFS, check destination-specific submission arrangements before setting out and keep those checks tied to the route you selected.
Open the destination-specific official page before booking. VFS Global says submission arrangements can vary, while Spain and Germany have separate jurisdiction checks. Keep the route, provider and Washington address aligned in your travel notes for the day.
Check your confirmation and security guidance: the TLScontact entry specifically directs applicants to review both before travelling. Use the address in the confirmation alongside the listed centre details, and allow time for traffic or closures.
Plan the long journey from your own starting point, not only from Clearwater's centre. The supplied drive-time figure is an estimate, and live conditions can alter it. Recheck the journey after your appointment is confirmed and before setting out.
For a Germany application, confirm that the Washington mission covers your place of residence and visa category. For Spain, confirm consular jurisdiction. These checks belong to the official booking process, not to a travel assumption.
